Aditya Varadpande has been promoted to managing director at Epyx to “drive innovation”.

Varadpande (pictured) joined the company in 2015 as director of international business, growth and marketing, and has previously held positions in marketing and product management across Europe.

He will report to Alan King, president of Fleetcor UK and Australasia.

“The team at Epyx are incredibly proud of our products and have built an excellent reputation with the client base. The company has a proven track record of innovation and success and has grown significantly in the last few years.

“We’ll be looking to build on the company’s achievements by continuing to work closely with our fleet clients, garage network and wider 1link community.

"1link platform development will be at the top of our agenda and we’ll be looking to innovate further with new technology and new thinking.

“The people and resources that we have available to use, both within Epyx and the wider Fleetcor family, are outstanding and I am very excited about the future of Epyx.”

King said: “During his time at Epyx, he has led new growth initiatives and played a key role in the international expansion of the business.

“With Aditya’s background and his time in the industry, I have no doubt he’ll be instrumental in driving the innovations needed to further develop Epyx and its products to meet the changing automotive and leasing industry.”
